My hair was long and shining
You said you can't believe
How could I walk out that door
Or walk along the streets
You told me i should you know
Do some bing bang curly wurly afro thing
I took your word and did
Looked in my mirror
Who's that freak
Why does the world deceive
Why do i make believe
Took my heel and made
Achilles out of me
Still i won't wanna be
Someone who's answer to me
Someone who sees like a child
Gives like a saint
Feels like an angel
Never mind the broken wings
And speaks like a picture
Cries like the rain
Shines like the star
As long as the fire remains
The vase beside my bed
It's empty almost dead
It's for all the flowers i'm gonna give you he said
And now it's collecting dust instead
Why does the world deceive
Why do i make believe
Took my heel made
Achilles out of me
Still i won't wanna be
Someone who's answer to me
Someone who sees like a child
Gives like a saint
Feels like an angel
Never mind the broken wings
And speaks like a picture
Cries like the rain
Shines like the star
As long as the fire remains
Sees like a child
Gives like a saint
Feels like an angel
Never mind the broken wings
And speaks like a picture
Cries like the rain
Shines like the star
As long as the fire remains
